Towing A Travel Trailer with a 6 Cylinder Toyota 4 Runner It seems this subject raises a lot of controversy. Here’s our experience after 10,000 miles from Central Illinois down the East Coast to south Florida, then from S FL out to the Southwestern US and back to Illinois… Keep in mind, our 4 Runner is a 2006 model rated for 5,000 lbs by Toyota, newer models have lower tow ratings.

Hi, have you ever had you trailer and tow vehicle weighed when fully loaded up for one of your long trips?
Hi Ron — No we haven’t taken the time to go to the truck stop scale and weigh our entire rig. Sorry! Cheers — Jan
